A CINE DRIVERS LIFE.


An DID Engineer Tells Oh some Ehpefiehces
In the Cab.
The lover of the toboggan and the
snow shoes welcomes the cold wave
signal, but to the railroad man IL is an
irreconcilial,le enemy. Speaking Of
the bardships endured by his craft in
winter, u locomotive engineer on the
Manitoba road said:
"An engineers life is far from being
q pleasant one, and the wrecSs that
orcur from time TO time are alone suf-
ficient TO render our lives miserable,
but we get accustomed 10 carrying
our lives in our hands and sometimes
/ think that an engineer has as many
lives ~ q cat. The cold weather is
very severe on our engines, and when
the mercury drops to IS or 80 degrees
below zero II seriously affects the rail
rs well as the engine. Two-tbirds OF
the wrecks In winter are due 10 broken
rails, and whenever i ride over one /
feel a. though my lease of life has ex-
pired. The cold affects our engines In
this way. Unless we keep steam run
ming through the Injector and blow
pipes, also the water and air pumps,
they will freeze up, and that would,
~ you know, burst the pipes and dis
able the engines. The cold striking
the smoke arch and boiler prevents
the engines from steaming, and with
out steam we naturally cannot make
much head way. The cold also affects
the side rods, and no one but an eDgin-
eer knows how uncertain life is when
the broken rod brushes through the
cab, smashing everything 10 its course.
l shall never forget my experience
with a broken rod on the Manitoba
road about four years ago; the ROD
broke and shot through my seat box,
throwing me 10 the opposite side OF
the cab SO quickly that did not real
ize what had happened for some min.
ufes after, but IL has been q subject OF
inquiry with me for some time how J.
was that was not cut In pieces; but
fortunately, I was not hurt.

tend with 10 leaking. This trouble 10

Buckley most cmphatically den les
that the Northern Pacific railroad is in
any manner, directly or indirectly, in-
tcrestcd or interesting itself in the re-
moval of the territorial capital to
Yakima. While making the denial
Mr.. Buckley spares space to take II
snap shot at the Seattle Post lntelli-
gencer, that was the first paper to
assert that the removal scheme was
being falh"red by the railroad. Mr..
Buckley speaks plainly, and his denial
deserves fair consideration. The peo-
pie Of the territory will look upon the
proposition OF removal with n better
grace when satisfied that the railroad
is not at the bottom of it.

The only thing possible that can pre-
vent the constl uctiOn Of the Irol osed
motor line will be the refusal OF the
city council to grant a franchise. Con-
sidering the benefits the entire city is
to enjoy from an enterprise OF the
kind it is hardly possible that this
privilege will be withheld, especially as
those soliciting the franchise are in
earnest, have the means at command
and propose to htven portion OF the
line running within nine months.

The MonoRram." !"

Spokane Falls has ~ reputation OF
having the most handsomely equipped
business houses in the territory. This
weakness for decorative eOrnamentation
and expensive establishments is not
confined to any one line of trade, but
all classes of business men vie with
each other in benutifying their quar-
ters. One Of the recent additions to
the Howard street business houses is
that Of the wholesale and retail cigar
and tobacco store of Havermule &
n few doors north OF the new FIRST
National bank building. 1t would be
difficult to find anywhere II more cozy
establishment, or one that is carrying
!, larger or better selected stock of ci.
gars, tobaccos and smokers articles.
The firm has spared no money in tit.
ting up this place, and it is Il perfect
gem in all OF its appointments. The
painters and decorators art has been
taxed to make attractive the sales
room, and all OF the fixtures are of the
very best. In the rear is an elegant
card room, carpeted and furnished in
fine style. The building is heated
with hot airs and can be so nicely
reg ulated as to keep it comfortable at
all times. The stock on hand consists
of the best brands Of chewing and
smoking tobaccos and the finest
make OF imported and domestic
cigars. The selection of meerschaum
and cheaper grades of pipes, cigar
holders, etc, is the best in the city.
Both S. ). Havermale and Dick Daw-
son, the members of the firm, are we'll
known, clever gentlemen, who have
enjoyed large share of the trade in
their line for long time. They are
live business men, popular among all
classes, and their place is great re-
sort for professional and business men.
We are pleased to see the young gen
tlemen show such evidence OF pros
peritv, and trust that they will con-
tinue to enlarge their business with
the growth CT Spokane Falls until "The
Monogram" becomes one of the larg.
est establishments OF the kind on the
Pacific coast.

SENATOR HoAR's scheme for the sur
vey OF IL proposed railroad from some
point near Spokane Falls to Alaska
sounds very well. But it strikes us
that the learned senator is somewhat
off in his geographical ideas when he
provides the survey from Spokane
Falls northward on the cast side OF the
Rocky mountains. A road would have
to double back ON its own track to take
that direction.
